Changbin Du 85acbb21b9 tracing: Change the function format to display function names by perf
Here is an example for this change.

$ sudo perf record -e 'ftrace:function' --filter='ip==schedule'
$ sudo perf report

The output of perf before this patch:

\# Samples: 100  of event 'ftrace:function'
\# Event count (approx.): 100
\#
\# Overhead  Trace output
\# ........  ......................................
\#
    51.00%   ffffffff81f6aaa0 <-- ffffffff81158e8d
    29.00%   ffffffff81f6aaa0 <-- ffffffff8116ccb2

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
